Atlético de Madrid eye Palmeiras striker 'Flaco' López

Yet another striker linked with Diego Simeone's side

He is in form and the Atleti like him. José Manuel 'Flaco' López, Palmeiras's Argentine striker, is a name on the table at the Atlético. The 25-year-old forward has established himself as one of the Brazilian side's main attacking reference points, and his performances are said to have caught the eye of Diego Pablo Simeone's team.

The Palmeiras striker has a €100 million release clause, according to several Brazilian outlets. However, should a major European club come calling in the summer transfer window, they could be willing to negotiate a transfer of around €30-35 million, according to DSports Radio.

According to Rubén Uría, the Argentine is a centre-forward who is highly rated within Atlético de Madrid. His profile fits the search for a penalty-box striker, particularly given his ability to use his physique and finish moves.
